Hi y'all. I just built a 71' Schwinn Racer.
Coming to this forum helped immensely, and I wanted to give everybody a thanks.
Lots of Fun.
To actually put it together only took eight hours, but I've spent hours tinkering.
I put on side pull brakes with a "handicap" brake lever. Basically it's a lever that pulls both front and rear brakes. Also have a coaster brake for reserve, but I just got a sturmey-archer 3 speed w/o coaster brake. Does anybody have any experience with the sturmey-archer AW 3speed, I'm wondering how well it will hold up with the motor???
Dang can't post pics yet.
